This brouhaha actually presents an interesting case study in incrementalism.

The actual ordinance is ill-advised and possibly unconstitutional for several reasons. THEN we get the INTERPRETATION of the ordinance from the de Blasio administration, which is even MORE ill-advised and which is CLEARLY unconstitutional for even MORE reasons.

Will illegal aliens be exempt from this law? They should have the same law for the “n word”. Would like to see them enforce that.

NYC anything for money.

When you go through the legal process for a green card, it's labeled with resident alien.
I have no problem calling illegal aliens, invaders instead.

“The use of certain language, including ‘illegal alien’ and ‘illegals,’ with the intent to demean, humiliate, or offend a person or persons constitutes discrimination.”


How are they going to determine the accused's intent? Are they going to go by feelings?

Will "my intent was just to be factual" be a valid defense?

The dems sure do love being the thought police. Now they are even going to tell you what your intent was.

The directive goes on to list several examples of acts and comments that would run afoul of the restrictions, including harassing people over their accents or grasp of English


Are we not allowed to make fun of people born here for the way they speak now? I can't make fun of idiots that use ebonics or misuse words? Will it be a crime to criticize someone for misusing there/their/they're online?

I have a feeling this law will only apply to white people talking to non-whites.

I keep telling you people that when these vindictive fricks get power back, they are going to squash the first Amendment and start jailing political opponents.

You better pay attention.

I guarantee you 90% of the Filth you know IRL support this shite too. They hate you with a passion.

If I walk into a bathroom, flicker the lights on and off real quick and repeat “illegal alien” 3 times real quick, will an ice agent appear in the mirror?

People can burn the flag and tell a cop to frick off, but NYC thinks they can outlaw the two words illegal and alien when put together?
